A Short Biography of Mark teahcer

My Teacher Mark!
I think anyone want to know that who he is, so that this homework stimulates my interest. Frankly, speaking I wanted to interview a classmate. Anyway, I felt interested while I was interviewing him. Do you know him well? If you don’t know him then this will help satisfy your curiosity. So let's start getting to know Mark.

Mark was born in 1957 in Montreal, Canada. His father was also born on the same street. When he was 10, he who had one sister and one brother was oldest. In 1967 his families moved to Burlington, Canada and he finished first grade. He grew up there until he was 13. The moment he was turning up 13 one day,his father told him they had to move to Vancouver, British Canada. When he was 14, he had serious problems because the last brother was born. That’s why he had to help his mother. As soon as the brother turned up 1 year old, they were going to move in Europe again.

His turning point was when he was 15. He entered at Copenhagen International School. He told me that there were a lot of turning point when he lived in Copenhagen. He visited a lot of countries, Germany, Sweden, the Netherlands, Spain, France and Italy. That’s why his father sold road construction equipment so that he could have a wealth of experience with many countries.

The next, he went to Russia in that same year. Speaking in Russian was very interesting to him. He loved to study and went to Egypt on the vacation. His teacher, Jerry Dekker taught him a love of history and took his class to Egypt as a school trip.

I asked him that who gave him a deep impression and he answered it was Abraham Lincoln who insisted that liberty, peace and justice. He respected such a Abraham Lincoln and he was eager to follow an Abraham Lincoln's mind and explained why he wanted to teach students and we have to learn something that can improve our lives constantly. He wanted to make his students obtain various knowledges. Besides he desired to have many chances to make and keep friendly relationships with his students through teaching. Finally, he told me getting free was the ultimate goal of teaching and learning to us in our lives, looking at me.

After listening his thinking, I could look back on my life and think about the reason I have to study and learn until I get free of real value.

Thank you for reading.

My experience about Yo-ga class

I decided to learn Yo-ga. I hadn't decied the other one yet so that I wanted more information. You can ask me why you want to learn Yo-ga which is not common for man. When I was in India, I had done it for three months. The exercise made me that lead to spiritual ease and keep one's health. I could have learned the more things if I'd had enough time. I would like to learn it again.

After the school, I went to the library, is located on near the Bloor-Yonge station, that is why Karen teacher said there was a lot information. As soon as I reached, I asked a worker the information where it get, etc. She just gave me a schedule of the library. I was disappointed with the answer which just shows time to learn english. The moment I wanted to see some posted information on a wall, I noticed that the person could give me the information that i want. When I approached her, she smiled to see me. She looked like an angel of mercy. She gave me a lot information very kindly. She recommend YMCA as the place.

The following day, I visited to YMCA and I asked a person who was like a conductor to lead me to Yo-ga class. When I got into the class, I felt a little disappointed. I thought there were a lot of people before I entered there because Yo-ga is very popular exercise in Korea and India ,so there were lots of Yo-ga classes and many people who wanted to learn it. By the way, there were a few people in the class. Anyway, I took part in the Yo-ga class. I did it after a long interval ,so it was difficult to me at first, but soon got used to do it. While playing Yo-ga, I found different thing between Indian Yo-ga and Canadian's. Though Indian's has various motions, their motions are so classical, while the motions in thisclas was suitable to Westerners' constitution. So it left something to be desired to me. After finishing class, I felt somewhat better.
Having dinner, I told my japanese friend who lives at same house I'd like to join the Yo-ga class together. but he didn't answer to my proposal. Frankly,speaking he seemed to be a little annoyed about the exercising. So I didn't tell more about that.
The next day, I was surprised that I didn't feel tired though I didn't sleep for a long time. Besides I slept well and in fact beat the alarm in the morning. The moment the japanese friend saw me, he who knew that I was usually a bad sleeper was also extremely surprised at my deed and then he told me he would like to join the class right now but after a short time, he said,"Sorry, it was just kidding". I just answered,"ok". )-:

If you want to become YMCA member, you must pay Merbership Fee and then you can enjoy everything you can there. I wanted to join another class but I didn't have enough time.

I'll Stand By You

OH, WHY YOU LOOK SO SAD?
TEARS ARE IN YOUR EYES
COME ON AND COME TO ME NOW
DON'T BE ASHAMED TO CRY
LET ME SEE YOU THROUGH 'CAUSE I'VE SEEN THE DARK SIDE TOO
WHEN THE NIGHT FALLS ON YOU

I'LL STAND BY YOU
I'LL STAND BY YOU
WON'T LET NOBODY HURT YOU
I'LL STAND BY YOU

SO IF YOU'RE MAD, GET MAD
DON'T HOLD IT ALL INSIDE
COME ON AND TALK TO ME NOW
HEY, WHAT YOU GOT TO HIDE?
I GET ANGRY TOO WELL I'M A LOT LIKE YOU
WHEN YOU'RE STANDING AT THE CROSSROADS
AND DON'T KNOW WHICH PATH TO CHOOSE
LET ME COME ALONG 'CAUSE EVEN IF YOU'RE WRONG

I'LL STAND BY YOU
I'LL STAND BY YOU
WON'T LET NOBODY HURT YOU
I'LL STAND BY YOU

When you love someone, you'll want the someone love you heartily.
Tell your mind truly If you love someone.

My bitter experience

I went to the Eaton Center with my friends. It was my first time. I wanted to buy mp3 player so that I went to electronic shop. Frankly, speaking I have already had my mp3 player. but now it didn't work right. Even I couldn't turn it on but I can't fix it because it is made in Korea. I sent e-mail to the company. After one day I received a mail about my complaing. The company gave me an information about the problem. but it doesn't work till now.

When I went the electronics shop at the center, I wanted to buy a reliable mp3. Although, it was very expensive, it didn't matter to me. I just wanted to use it for a long time so that I chose creative product. I had heard the company is famous for a product about music. I asked the clerk somthing about the service of customer which was important for me. when I asked her about it, she said,"If you want to refund or return, you have to visit our store within 30days." and I asked if the proplem continues then, I can refund it. She said it is possible if the proplem was continuous and they couldn't fix it. In addition, she told me that if I wanted more time about the term of guarantee, I had to pay more money. It is different with Korea.

Eventually, I bought it. When I decided to buy it, I asked her that I can check it on the spot. She smiled to see me. She said I found any fault, she could change another one. She told me not to worry. At that time I could be satisfied. After shopping I went back home and I cheked the price at the website of the company. Oh my!! The price was cheaper than I bought. I couldn't go to bed because of the price.
